"Individuals"

Meaning $524,068 came from individuals who work at Microsoft. This is nothing, it is completely normal, if I moved to America and joined Microsoft then donated to her then I would increase that total and this total is over a 31 year period, Lol. People really need to stop using this to go after her because they are all reading it completely wrong.

She's a Washington Senator as well so naturally she will have a lot of employees who work at Microsoft donating to her because Microsoft is a Washington based company who employee nearly 50,000 in Washington alone. She was likely lobbied (although no evidence of financial transaction yet) by Microsoft or someone close to them who planted these seeds, it makes sense, she is a Washington Senator and Microsoft is a Washington company but literally every single company in the world lobbies, including Sony.

I want to make clear though that Microsoft did not donate $524k to her, as some are reading this and using as an excuse to go after her.

Yeah and? 

These 11 congressmen didn't wake up one day and decided it's time to fix the gaming industry behaviours in Japan because their representatives have voiced concerns about the Xbox situation in Japan. It's all to do with lobbying.

I am not "going after her". I am making fun of the state of western democracies because literally every single company in the world lobbies. 

Sure...You can make fun of lobbying.

But what was the point in the image? Lol.
